This season is kinda funny in that Sunraku somehow always finds new challengers.

As expected, he still makes solid usage of tools and weapons. If anything, this guy just keeps on improving. Dude is just fearless.

Good to be back in SLF this episode!

Yea I can’t lie if that’s how the golem area boss is I see why everyone went with the other routes lmao. Even Sunraku with his cheat skills and gear struggling against that mf. Fight was dope in the first half, can’t wait for the rest next week

I know he’s meeting up with Rust and the others now but damn we need that Psyger-0 and Sunraku team fight lmao.

Sunraku made the right choice to worry about other things later and keep his promise to Rust & Mordo.
Very funny Moment with Psyger-0/Rei.
I'm looking forward to seeing Sunraku use these new weapons Bliac created.

I have ADD, ADHD & AUTISM, but this won't stop me. Let's keep having fun together.

Sunraku is not struggling at all though. He's speedrunning it in less than a minute trying to beat the record time which is 1 min. Others used to avoid it until they found the weakness exploit to kill him and now fight him to beat the record.

He's only meeting up with Pysger 0 as he dont want to share info with them and didn't invite.

Sunraku in shambles, his secret sanctuary is no longer his alone. He better not make Psyger 0 wait but she's already there an hour ago lol. Those gauntlets look cool.

Btw the anime subs for some reason mentions Psyger 0 as "she" when Psyger 0 is referred to as "he" by others as they don't know she's actually a girl.

@tofei Yeah I was kind of wondering if that wasn't something of a plot hole. I thought Lycagon's curse kept him from equiping any armor. I'd expect a helm to be armor. So how's he wearing it? If it's not considered armor, why didn't he wear some kind of head gear before now?

Even I feel anxious for Sunraku about the fact that this other player has reached Rabituza/Rabbit Land. I love and hate how much is going on simultaneously in this world because almost everything is equally interesting.

But the "romance" aspect of Shangri-La really is the weakest part of the show. But at least their meet-up feels organic and not forced. There probably won't be any real development any time soon, but I wanna see them interact nonetheless.


@joemaamah isn't his usually bird-mask also considered a type of helmet? Or is this just his head he chose in the character creation? I can't really remember.

Sunraku returning to the show's namesake! Back here again after letting off some robot steam, going to meet those players in the fifteenth city for information on that kraken monster. Not too pleased when he heard another player had entered the rabbit kingdom. Sunraku monopoly on the unique scenario there might not be so air tight as he thought. Sunraku leaving Emul behind again is sad but she has the important task of keeping an eye on that new girl running around the rabbit kingdom. Sunraku sending an invitation off to Rei seeing if she would help him speed run to that fifteenth city since it's pretty far away from where Sunraku has been. Rei reaction to the invitation was funny, her getting all giddy and excited about playing together with Sunraku. Who based on the path he took has run into this crazy looking garbage dump boss. Made out of the scrap and trash there in that massive area it's a creepy looking boss. Very formidable unless you know the weakness apparently, now becoming a speed run boss for late game players. I'm excited to see Sunraku use those new gauntlets that Bilac made him from the scorpions on this giant hunk of junk!

I knew Sunraku would feel bad about another player coming to Rabituza; he doesn't feel special anymore. But he's right: sharing too much rRabituza could cause problems. Luckily, Emul is pretty easy to convince, so they'll keep an eye on the new player to make sure they don't screw anything up.

Before the "date" with Psyger-0 (finally, Rei deserves some happiness!), Sunraku is preparing to defeat an area boss with his shiny new weapons. I can't wait to see how powerful they are; I bet he'll crush that boss in record time!

He can't equip armor over Lycagon's curse which is on his torso and legs. Helmets (including bird mask) and belts, both of which he used into the Weathermon battle are okay. The ghost sheet has some work-around too based on its armor type.

Still baffles me how greedy Sunraku is with his guild mates.
Surprised he has studied the boss he has to fight instead of going head first and just let the Rabutza scenario carry him as usual.

Overall, as setup as the episode might be, I've liked it a lot.

Wow, he is only 2,5 minutes into a fight which he'll finish in less than a minute total. What a champ!

Also, I just can't get enough of characters shouting explanations of what's happening to nobody in particular and for no reason whatsoever. That gets me so wet, it might be even hotter than shouting corny attack names (which he also did, what a treat this was).

I’ll be honest: didn’t like this episode. Sunraku is becoming a bit of a jerk in his treatment of the Rabituza NCPs, which I feel like is the worst move considering there’s another player competing for the questline now.

Additionally, it’s starting to feel like a lot of the in-game world is plot dependent. Like Sunraku thinks he’s end game bc he’s level 99, yet he’s nearly fourty cities behind? And somehow the Ruins of Past Glory, which seem like an important area bc of the previous episodes, are literally in the beginning of the game.

Sorry for the rant: I just really like this show and I’m worried it’s starting to stray from its original formula.

It's back to SLF time and with it comes a new character whose name I forgot because of how difficult it is to pronounce. With Sunraku looking for a way to meet Rust in SLF he needs a better way to get to Fiftia and what better companion than Psyger-0 with Saiga completely losing it at the invitation. Time for more action and a new weapon to be tested.

No encounter with Akane for the time being, it seems.

Cool episode, even if it felt like a setup one for the most part. Looking forward to seeing Sunraku's "date" with Rei.

Also lol, Sunraku sure SKIP Bilac's explanation, huh? xD

Also I think it was boss vitash or Emil mentioned that our man's actually been double cursed resulting in even further armor restrictions no just legs or arms

It was Setsuna of the Bygone Days. Setsuna stated that Sunraku was cursed by Lycagon twice; torso and legs.

BTW, the Ghost Sheet was mentioned by Sun that it's a Helmet equip, basically like a Veil, but a lot longer, LOL.

Coming an hour early just to stand there doing FA is insane though XD. Lol poor guy, but honestly with an online game that has limited stock realistically things might be out of stock more often than they are in stock.

Now Sunraku can find out XD he has company in rabbit land. RNG, truly the rule of the world. Aw Emul just wants company. Give her headpats, she needs some.

These giga weapons are huge and cool. Mega gauntlets that have voice recognition features? Truly the futuristic weaponry of that territory. Shouldve let the blacksmith explain her weapons before you left, rip. Especially with the 300 Vitality requirement. Psyger already tripping up over the invitation XD hey. Progress in their definitely not a relationship scenario.

Woooo area boss fight. The bigger hunk of junk (although really with Sunraku's skills it presents 0 issue). It's nice to show off all the upgraded skills doing their thing. Shangri has always been solid on the action department.

All while Psyger waits XD

@joemaamah It's the same headgear he wore against Weathermon. It doesn't count as an armor, same with the bird mask he always wears.

While Sunraku invited Psyger-0 to help him out she's treating it as a date, hopefully things won't get too weird and a misunderstanding pops up. On that note I wonder how much he'll tell her considering the meeting with Rust and Mold is presumably confidential.

To think that there's another plater in Rabituza, Sunraku hearing this from Emul herself is quite the surprise, and he's scared if the other player has got the steps ahead of him, which will render everything he's done up to this point, useless. And to hear the name of Akitsuakane, it's not someone whom he knows, but it'd be better if he got ahead of the game first, thanks to the RNG enemy he's been dreading. Instead, going to Fifticia and meeting both Rust and Mold early in the morning is the appropriate task, and bribing Emul with carrots to hold Akitsuakane, Sunraku is a devil lols. At the same time, Bilac being done with using the Crystal Scorpion loot and making big-ass weapons for him, unfortunately Sunraku hasn't got the time to deal with her, just not now. But to get to Fifticia from Eighthold, either one of the clans beside his will work, and asking Psyger-0 for help, Rei's finally got a chance to see Sunraku up close lols.

Too bad that the Gilta Brill is yet another weapon that Sunraku cannot equip due to insufficient stats, and just nice that he's in the Ruins of Past Glories, which is where Eleventar is located thereafter for the secret meeting with Psyger-0. In the meantime, Sunraku dealing with the Area Boss of the Overdress Golem, and downsizing his battle to a sub-minute time with his new weapons, bro's gotta make it for the appointment.

Sunraku's got priorities to make for his appointment...or rather, the "date" with Psyger-0.
